2agendas share a more complex and contradictory relationship than is often assumed.Specifically, I seek to highlight the importance of paying attention to thepossibilitythatrightsthemselves are inherently ‘contradictory’ in nature and that therein lies theircontribution tothedemocratisationagenda. Indeed, theprovocative aim of this article is,bydrawing onSamuelBowles’sandHerbertGintis’s view of rights claims as‘clashing’and‘politico-economically’grounded, toargue for a more politicised and openly contradiction-seeking(rather than ‘technical’ and ‘coherent’) approach torights anddemocracy promotion.I advance this(theoretically motivated but practically consequential)argumentspecifically inthe context EU’s human rights anddemocracy promotionpolicies, althoughthe theoreticalclaims advanced here arguably apply beyond the actions of this specific actor.IntroductionHumanrights have been onthe agendaof most major western states since the early 1990s.Therise ofhuman rights valuesinaid policies and international organisations’ activitiesinrecent decadeshas been well documentedby a number of commentators in internationalstudies, developmentstudiesand international law.1A broad consensus, it is argued, nowexists on the value and content of human rights promotion and many donor states take humanpromosi hak asasi menjadi pusat untuk pengembangan dan Kelola agenda mereka. Namun, wtopi adalahkurang sering dicatat bahwa kebijakan hak asasi manusia telah erat dikaitkan dengan yang lainAgenda dalam kerangka kebanyakan donor: kebijakan mereka juga telah membuat referensi untuk demokrasi3tujuan promosi dan bantuan. Amerika Serikat adalah yang pertama untuk memulai democrACY promosiAgenda sebagai bagian penting dari strategi kebijakan luar negeri, tetapi sejak pertengahan-1990-an, banyak orang lain telahdiikuti utamanya. Terutama, selama dekade terakhir terutama, Uni Eropa telah berusaha untukmengukir ruang yang berbeda untuk dirinya sendiri dalam bidang kebijakan ini.Organisasi-organisasi internasional lainnya, sepertiPBB, dan berbagai macam aktor LSM juga telah berusaha peran untuk diri mereka sendiri dalammemperluas demokrasi promosi industri, yang telah dilihat sebagai suatu bidang tindakan eratterkait dengan, tetapi belum kunci aspecTS berbeda, dari advokasi hak asasi manusia. Memang,bidang promosi demokrasi telah memperoleh keyakinan yang lebih besar dalam beberapa tahun terakhir karena telah adameningkatkan panggilan untuk donor untuk menempatkan telah ' kembali ke mereka ' tata pemerintahan, HAM dandemokrasi ' membantu pekerjaan.2Bagian iniberusaha untuk memeriksa penasaran, dan agak lebih kompleks daripada diharapkan, interaksiantara promosi demokrasi dan hak asasi manusia agenda. Artikelmemiliki dua-lipat tujuan.Pertama, itu berusaha untuk memunculkan pemahaman yang lebih baik atas peran manusia RIghts promosi sebagaiBagian dari promosi demokrasi. Dua agenda telah dilihat sebagai kopel oleh sebagian besaractors, yet somecommentatorswithin the donor community as well as within recipient stateshave criticised thenotion that they areagendas that areeasily compatible.I examine here theplausibility and meaning of this latter claim.Second, it is the aim here to engender a betterunderstanding of what human rights promotion means for how we understand democracypromotion practice. It has recently beenclaimed that two distinct perspectives–narrow‘political’ and wider ‘developmental’–perspectives can be taken on democracy promotion inthe community of experts.3I seek here to understand what the role of human rights promotionis inshaping these twoperspectives.4I analyse both of the above questions with very specific analytical framework in mind. It is ananalytical framework that places emphasis specifically on the‘politico-economicunderpinnings’of human rights and democracy promotion. Often these agendas areunderstood as purely ‘political’–a trend which takes its lead from the tendency to conform toa liberal framework of thought in understanding the content of both rights and democracy.Herethe self-evidence ofsuch an understanding is challenged; the aim, instead, is toexplicitly revealthe underlying politico-economic underpinningsof the human rights anddemocracy aidpolicies. In so doing, I adopt an understanding of models of democracy as‘politico-economic’ in nature,and specificallyanalyse them in relation tothe position ontherelationship ofrights and democracy developed bySamuelBowlesand Herbert Gintis.4Drawing on their work on rights and democracy, itis argued here that ‘clashes of rights’provides a central aspect to the idea ofdemocracy and its politico-economic foundations. Farfrom liberal rights being central to democratisation, it is the clashes of rights which isconsidered central to democratisation. This argument, if plausible, has consequences for thekinds ofrights democracy promoters advance and see as compatible with democracyenhancement. Democracy promotion agencies, such as the EU, tend tosee all rightspromotionas contributingtowards theagenda of‘liberal democracy’. I argue here thatdepending on how democracy and rights are conceptualised, and how their politico-economiccontext is understood, we gaina wildlydiffering set of perspectives on human rights anddemocracy promotion. We can see that far from advocating a consistent model, thedemocracypromoters,inadvertently in part,advocate clashing sets of rights.Thisis an interesting insight whichcan be read ineither apositiveora negative way. It canbe read positively in the sense that we can come to acknowledge that dealing with clashingrights has always been at the heart of democratisation and is a source of the radical potential5of democracy to change societies and their socio-economic inequalities.5Yet, it can also beread in a negative sense: it could be argued thatindemocracy promotion discourse andpracticeat presentthis radical potential of clashing sets of rights is by and large ignored,instrumentalised, and de-radicalised because of the calls for ‘consistency’ of and‘depoliticised’ conception of rights.I examine rights and democracy promotion here in thecontext of EU democracy promotion to clarify these trends.It is argued that in currentdemocracy promotionby the EUa rather conservative set of understandings of rights andtheir role in politico-economic struggles dominates, although much potential also exists indeveloping these agendas in the direction of more pluralistic,contested and politico-economically radical rightsand hence democracy promotionagendas.
